﻿Bridge shut down until mid-August

﻿﻿...﻿﻿A spokesman for MoDOT told Pleasant Hill City Hall last week that the “Green Bridge” on 7 Highway south of town is expected to be closed until mid August. ...﻿﻿The project to replace bearings under the bridge was originally scheduled to be completed during the week of July 20, but unanticipated problems have delayed the project. ...﻿﻿Weather delays set the work back initially and unforeseen problems with the bridge bearings themselves will require more extensive repair work than originally thought. ...﻿﻿MoDOT officials indicate that they still hope to have the project completed before the start of school on August 18....﻿﻿The bridge was closed for repairs on June 10. As a result of the bridge repairs, 7 Highway has been closed to traffic just south of the 58 Highway intersection.
